I am a bit confused on why the answer is E and not D. I feel like D makes less of an assumption than E in stating that the algae would clog the pipes and the mussels stop that from being the case. In E, there is mention of transforming the algae. In hindsight, I can sort of see how mussels absorbing hazardous waste would then mean that they themselves are hazardous waste, but I'm having trouble definitively understanding why E is the glaringly right choice over D.

Hi! Is there any way to drill by question types I seem to get incorrect often in the reading comprehension section? Or at least finding passages in which a question of the specific type I'm looking for is included? Thank you! :)

Hi everyone,

I began studying for the LSAT in June using 7Sage's CC v1, but I recently learned that there is now a CC v2. I am about 25% through the logical reasoning portion of the curriculum, and after gaining access to CC v2 I've noticed that the curriculum is much more condensed and different. I'm wondering what I should do, either continue with CC v1 or switch to CC v2 for the remainder of my studies. Would continuing to study CC v1 disadvantage me in preparation for taking the October/November LSATs?

Any suggestions or insight is greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

Are you allowed scratch paper during the reading comp section of the test? I know you are allowed it for logic games, just wondering if its allowed for the entire thing?? Thanks

Hello everyone,

2.5ish weeks ago I had been scoring high 160s and was ecstatic to finally break into the 170s on PT77, but then my scores for the next four PTs were were back to where they were before. Today, I just finished PT82 with my lowest score in weeks.

With the August test weeks away I had been optimistic, but have no idea what to do now. Maybe I'm burnt out (been doing 2 PTs/week recently), but it seems too late for a break. All tips/advice/encouragement are welcome.

Thank you.

It's my goal practice law in my home state of Pennsylvania, but I don't want to rule out attending any schools outside of my state if the school is recognized enough to get work back in the area.

About where on the list is a school recognizable enough to be employable after school and out of that state?

Also, are there any niche schools that my not rank high on the list but are more so employable out of state?

Hello!

Is there a specific lesson where J.Y. discusses the types of reasoning? I completed the core curriculum last year, and I don't recall him discussing the types of reasoning. Is this something new to V2? #help

Anyone have any idea of when LSAC is going to announce what month they are changing to the new test format and getting rid of logic games? I've seen people predict June/July 2024, but how much of a heads up will we get?

WHY IS IT NOT E? like it literally says "government official" how is a insurance adjuster a government official? And it said that it is wrong for the person to not give an answer and that they must tell the truth? She literally told the insurance adjuster that she doesnt know?

Is there anyone in Phx who would like to start an in person study group? I am currently still scoring in the 140s, but believe a set schedule and being around others who are pursuing the same goals would be a great idea. If you are near and up for it, please reach out. Thank you!!

PrepTest A - Section 2 - Passage 2 Question 11

If someone could assist me in explaining how D is the correct answer. The final paragraph, to my knowledge, explained how Fannie's Film gave the working women a chance to tell her own story. In this case it gives women who were ignored by mainstream media the ability to expose realisitic filmaking and give them represenation?

Hello! I am debating if I should do the CCv1 or CCv2 and was wondering if anyone had any experiences switching. Apparently, the Core Curriculum v2 (beta) contains 84 hours of lessons, whereas the Core Curriculum v1 has over 217 hours of lessons. So I didn't know if I would be missing out on a lot of content by doing the CCv2. For references, I just started studying and made it through the Foundations of the CCv1and just started the LR. LSAT in November.

Is it me, or did the preptests get way more tricky with LR bait answers between the 00s tests to the 10s tests?

I show improvement in RC and LG but LR seems so difficult to adapt to given the amount of bait answers that have become more numerous in the more recent preptests.

PrepTest February 1997 - Section 1 - Question 14 - AC E #help

I am confused here as to why AC E does not work. Although I have my own reasons, I am just looking for some confirmation on my thinking here since there is no explanation posted for this question yet.

From my understanding of the passage, we see no difference in the number of collisions at place that used to require headlights only when visibility was poor which then switched to having headlights mandatory at all time.

E seems to resolve this paradox. If a place used to only require headlights be turned on in poor visibility, but visibility is also poor all of the time, then we would expect everyone's headlights to be on all of the time. Thus, implementing a new law that makes it mandatory for headlights to be on regardless of visibility would have no impact on this, resolving the paradox.

Is the reasoning for E being incorrect the use of the word "frequently" rather than "always"? Thus implying that there may still be SOME difference? I can definitely see that being the case.

As for AC C being correct, is this due to AC C establishing that the use of headlights has no causal effect on collisions, and instead is simply case of correlation between safe drivers and headlight usage? It would then logically follow that increasing the use of headlights would actually have no impact on collisions, since now we will just have the unsafe drivers also using headlights at all time.
